"Turkey seems to ease its will-power to resume a war but anti-Kurdish
sentiments continue to be dominant," Ruben Safrastyan, an expert in
Turkish studies, told a news conference today, speaking about the
situation on Turkish-Iraqi border.
The Turkish expert cannot forecast if there will be a war or
not. However, referring to Turkish media, he said that the final
decision will be reached on November 5, 6 when Turkish Prime Minister
Erdoghan is in USA. Safrastyan believes that Turkey pushes back the
European integration processes in its Middle East politics.
In the words of the expert, Turkish-Iraqi war is full of
dangers. Without doubt, Turkish intentions are strong. Turkey is
supported by the USA. "USA has started to provide intelligence
information on Kurdish Working Party deployments in the mountains
of Northern Iraq," the expert said referring to the press secretary
of Pentagon.
The next danger, according to the speaker, is that in case Turkey
engages in large-scale actions in Iraqi Kurdistan, it will mean that
Turkey engages in aggression against Iraq. The leadership of Iraq
has announced that it will fight against such actions. It means war
is inevitable.
